Trump deeply interested in Korean Peninsula: U.S. ambassador

Acting U.S. Ambassador to South Korea Joseph Yun said President Trump remains deeply interested in the Korean Peninsula during talks in Seoul today with Unification Minister Chung Dong‑young.

"When President Trump first came in, I worked under him for about two years. So I know for sure he has a lot of interest in the Korean Peninsula."

Yun added that the project Trump began with North Korea is still unfinished.

Minister Chung, for his part, said he was counting on Trump's leadership to turn an uneasy peace on the peninsula into lasting stability.
